Boardman Walmart robbed

BOARDMAN — Police are investigating a weekend robbery at a Doral Drive discount store.

An employee at Walmart told police that a man went to the register early Saturday morning with a shopping cart full of clothing.

A cashier rang up and bagged the items, which totaled about $127. The man handed the cashier a calling card wrapped in a note that said, “if you say a word I’ll pull this trigger and blow your brains out,” a police report said.

The cashier didn’t see a weapon but the man kept his hand near his waist band as if he had a weapon.

The cashier told police that she just stared at the man and he grabbed the bag of merchandise and walked out of the store to a waiting vehicle.

The car then headed toward South Avenue.
